Our ward is starting a new initiative to have the kids with musical talent help out playing prelude during Primary. This week they passed around a sign up sheet for kids to write down which instruments they play and which hymns they know or are willing to learn.

When the sign-up got to Davis, he casually grabbed the pen and wrote down that he would be happy to play some prelude music on a violin.

After Primary, a presidency member walked over to me and Davis.

Presidency Member: "So, Davis signed up to play the violin for prelude music."
Me: "What was that?"
Presidency Member repeats herself.
Me: "Davis, do you even know what a violin is?"
Davis: "Yep, it's that thing you hold on your shoulder and move back and forth."(mimics "violin" action)
Me: "OK, um, where are you going to get a violin to play?"
Davis (to the Presidency Member): "Don't you have some here?"

Getting ready for church this morning, Davis walks out with pants and a sweater vest on, but no shirt. I send him back up to put on a shirt and he comes down with it hanging out from under the sweater vest.

Me: "Davis you need to tuck in your shirt."
Davis: "Why?"
Me: "Because it looks terrible. You look like a mess."
Davis: "Well, this is a new day, you're actually telling me I have to put my hands in my pants."
